How to Band Natural Hair – Oklahoma City Hair Salon

Natural hairstyles have become very popular, and with them come special care needs. Natural hair is prone to breakage, and high heat tools add to this tendency. One way to help your hair relax before you style it is to band it. Banding stretches the hair gently without heat. It is one way to protect your natural hair from damage, while making it more manageable. All you need to band your hair are good quality covered ponytail holders. Be sure to get ones that are wide enough to band your hair correctly, and have enough padding protect your hair.

After you wash your hair and towel dry it, use a large tooth comb to detangle it, and apply a leave in conditioner. Section out your hair like you are going to do all over braids. Apply moisturizer to the first section of your hair, and place a covered ponytail holder at the base. Add more holders spacing them a half inch to one inch away from each other. Continue down the section of hair until you reach the ends. Braid the ends which are loose. Repeat this process on all sections of your hair, and let dry overnight.

In the morning you can take the bands out and style your hair. Your hair will be stretched and much easier to braid, twist, or set in flexi-rods. Banding is a great choice for children’s hair. It protects their hair from heat while making it much easier to work with. Ask your stylist for suggestions for moisturizing and conditioning products to protect and nourish your natural hair. She can also help you learn how to band your hair, and give you suggestions about styling.

How to Care for Natural Hair – Oklahoma City Hairstylist

Natural hair is a beautiful way to wear your hair, but it does require some special considerations to keep it healthy looking and frizz free. Moisture is your biggest concern for natural hair because without ample moisture, your hair will be frizzy, dull and lifeless. There are many ways to wear your hair naturally. You can style it in an afro, in braids, wear dreadlocks and let it curl and do its own thing. No matter how you wear your hair, you can use these simple tips to keep it looking and feeling great.

Use a moisturizing system to nourish and protect your hair. Products with Argan oil are perfect to use on natural hair. Argan oil moisturizes and gives your hair the essential oils it needs without being greasy. MorroccanOil has a complete line of products to keep your hair healthy and is recommended by professional stylists to keep your hair looking and feeling healthy.

Keep your scalp healthy. For healthy hair you need a healthy scalp. Use a moisturizer (argan oil is a great choice for your scalp, too) on your scalp and avoid rubbing vigorously when you shampoo. Only use your fingertips and never your fingernails. Your fingernails can scratch your scalp and leave you open to infection. Many people who think they have dandruff actually have a dry scalp. Dandruff is a medical condition that is accompanied with crusty spots and sometimes sores. If you develop sores or tender spots on your scalp, see your doctor for a diagnosis.

Always use a heat protectant before you use a flat iron, hot comb or hot rollers. This product protects your hair from the high heat of styling tools. You need to protect your hair from heat so that you don’t experience breakage or singe your hair. Some styling tools reach over 400 degrees, so protect your hair before you use them.

Use a leave in curl definer to create soft curls. After you wash and dry your hair, use a curl defining product to form soft curls for more definition in your style. You can also use this product after you use hot rollers or a curling iron.

Spritz on a shine spray for extra shine and to keep your hair soft. Shine spray also protects your hair from the elements and is a smart last step for natural hair.

Wrap your hair at night. Use a silk scarf and wrapping lotion to keep your hair from becoming tangled and frizzy. If you’re not sure how to do this, ask your stylist to show you. Once you get the hang of wrapping, it’s not hard and very beneficial to natural hair. With some care and the right products, you can enjoy the freedom and beauty of natural hair.
